Genes affected

SCN2B (HGNC:10589): (sodium voltage-gated channel beta subunit 2) The protein encoded by this gene is the beta 2 subunit of the type II voltage-gated sodium channel. The encoded protein is involved in cell-cell adhesion and cell migration. Defects in this gene can be a cause of Brugada Syndrome, atrial fibrillation, or sudden infant death syndrome.

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 15 of the SCN2B protein (p.Thr15Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs201373014, gnomAD 0.005%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SCN2B-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 191495). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant¬†is likely to be tolerated. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.T15M variant (also known as c.44C>T), located in coding exon 1 of the SCN2B gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 44. The threonine at codon 15 is replaced by methionine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration has been reported as a secondary cardiac variant in an exome cohort (Ng D et al. Circ Cardiovasc Genet, 2013 Aug;6:337-46). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
